Do you love fantasy romance books but long for a new story that you haven’t read before? Perhaps something a little less linear and with adult protagonists, a layered epic fantasy plot, plenty of twists and turns, and of course a good helping of spice. If that’s what you’re looking for, then you’re in luck because that’s exactly what you get in the soon to be complete Cruel Goddess series by HR Moore.
The series follows a split story format, alternating back and forth between two arcs chapter by chapter, and the two sides don’t collide until book 3. Book 1, Bride of Stars and Sacrifice, follows Ava, a destitute tavern girl with a mysterious past. She dreams of escape, and hopes Kush, a dangerous stranger, might provide it. Meanwhile, Maria and Elex must wed to end 300 years of conflict, and are pleasantly surprised to find they like each other …
The series is packed full of all the goodness you’d expect, including:
- An arranged marriage
- Forbidden romance
- Secrets from the past
- Political intrigue
- Gods & Goddesses
- Found family
- Morally grey main characters
- And witty banter
Book 3, Goddess of Promise and Pain, releases February 13th in eBook, paperback, hardcover, and in Kindle Unlimited. Grab your copy here.
